Should man rule over women for women’s own good?

[Fidel_Castronaut]

I know you were, hence why I asked whether you'd heard of 'brevity is the soul of wit'?

The issue is comparing the bible to Shakespeare is apples to oranges. Aside from the fact that the English language of the 16th century is pretty well understood to the point where it can be read by even 7 years olds, the bible is supposedly conveying the messages of an as of yet still un-evidenced celestial being.

That being the case it is the only 'word' we have to go on, no? Hence Esqulax's question.

Just incase, brevity is the soul of wit just means don't waste my time. The bible is chock full of inconsistencies and contradictions, yet it's the word of a god. How odd.

I have never come across a contradiction in the Bible before.

Maybe you've never read it?
